More About Festival of Trees at Indiana History Center - Indianapolis

This year’s Festival of Trees extravaganza will feature a winter wonderland with more than 75 elaborately decorated trees representing individuals, families, and organizations from around Indiana. Eli Lilly Hall also features a massive, 30-foot centerpiece tree that is viewable throughout most of the building. Festival of Trees will be open November 11, 2022 through January 7, 2023/

✨TWILIGHT TUESDAYS
Twilight Tuesdays will offer special extended hours (5 to 8pm) for those who wish to see the trees by night. “Twilight Tuesdays” are a great option for a date night or an after-work team outing on Nov. 29, Dec. 6, 13 and 20. With a paid ticket to Festival of Trees, those 21 and over can sample a selection of Heaven Hill brands bourbon. Bourbon cocktails and special holiday bites provided by Jonathan Byrd’s Catering will also be available to purchase. Visitors will also have a chance to register to win a Heaven Hill distillery trip for six.

🔍SCAVENGER FUN
Visitors can also participate in scavenger hunts for the Elf on the Shelf or the Weihnachtzgurke (10 pickle ornaments hidden in trees throughout the building) — watch IHS’s social media channels for hints on locations.

🍬HOLIDAY TREATS

🎄THE SALVATION ARMY ANGEL TREE
Festival of Trees guests can be a part of this remarkable program by visiting the special Angel Tree in the Basile Welcome Center.
